Audio Integration
Plug-in software such as software synthesizers and software samplers are exceptionally convenient in that
they let you easily change the various settings and parameters within the host application. However, control
over hardware is not so easy—with the need for various setups such as audio connections, driver settings
and MIDI port connections.
By using a Studio Connections-compatible DAW software, you can control the external hardware synthesizer
within the application, without the need to set up complex connections within a DAW software application—
just as easily and conveniently as you would with plug-in software. The Audio Integration function makes all
this possible. For details about Recall and Audio Integration, visit our web site at:

About Open Plug-in Technology
Open Plug-in Technology (OPT) is a software format that enables you to control MIDI devices from a music
DAW application software. For example, this allows you to start up and operate various parts of your music
system, such as voice editors of the synthesizer and mixing control editors—directly from an OPT-compatible
software, without having to use each separately. OPT also makes it unnecessary to set MIDI drivers for each
application, streamlining your music production system and making all operations more convenient and
seamless.
In addition to the original OPT, Open Plug-in Technology Version 2 (OPT 2), designed for Studio Connections,
is also available. The host application Studio Manager supports OPT 2.
About the OPT 2 Overview
OPT 2 is a plug-in format that enhances OPT Level 1 (Panels) and adds some convenient
functions for Studio Connections.
Plug-in software compatible with OPT 2 is indirectly
connected to the DAW application compatible with
Studio Connection, via the Studio Manager.
